@BrandonFugal @Berserk97981716 @tommyIzito@MickWest Most of us are taught that Life and Reality fit within certain “boundaries” as we grow up. And we are “conditioned” to reject any narrative that challenges that. It often requires a personal experience to even start chipping away at such indoctrination.
Sweden is reintroducing printed books and handwriting into its classrooms. Once celebrated as a leader in digital education, the country is now directing significant resources toward traditional textbooks while limiting the use of tablets and screens, particularly for young students.
Swedish authorities attribute this policy shift to mounting evidence that excessive screen time may have harmed reading proficiency and basic skill development. The government has also announced plans to ban digital learning tools for children under six years old.
Scientific research on handwriting provides insight into the rationale. When children write by hand, they engage multiple brain areas responsible for motor control, visual processing, memory, focus, and language. Unlike typing, this process demands precise coordination of fine movements alongside letter recognition and word formation. Studies indicate that such multisensory engagement enhances letter knowledge, spelling, reading acquisition, and memory retention.
Printed books may similarly promote stronger comprehension. Research shows that people often retain information more effectively from physical pages than from digital displays. The tangible nature of paper offers spatial references that aid memory organization. In contrast, screen based reading, especially when interrupted by notifications or hyperlinks, can fragment attention and reduce deep focus.
This approach does not reject technology entirely. Computers and tablets continue to serve important roles in research, group projects, accessibility features, and interactive exercises. Education specialists emphasize the need for thoughtful integration, applying digital resources where they prove most effective while safeguarding core practices such as handwriting, printed materials, and direct teacher instruction.
Sweden's policy change mirrors growing international discussions about optimal screen time in schools. As educators worldwide evaluate the benefits and drawbacks of digital tools, many are reconsidering when traditional methods may better support fundamental learning.
The IRS is threatening to seize a Tennessee man's farm after charging him interest on a $20,000 refund it accidentally sent him, which he immediately tried to return.
Wilson Perry Kirby, 76, says he was accidentally sent $20,000 by the IRS in 2022.
Kirby immediately tried returning the money and even hired an accountant to fix the issue.
Instead, the IRS is now charging him interest on the money he tried returning and is withholding his 2025 tax refund.
"I've tried the president, governor, mayor. They don't mind asking you to vote for them, but when you need help you can't get ahold of nobody," Kirby said.
Despite trying to fix the problem, the IRS is still sending letters, demanding he pay interest on the money they accidentally sent him that he tried to return. He never spent it.
The IRS is now threatening to seize his farm if he doesn't pay the up to $4300 (and growing) interest.
Infuriating.

This lad playing bagpipes over the Muslim call to prayer is exactly how you preserve your culture.
Stand unapologetically for your own heritage.
Never allow Islam to erase generations of your history and identity.
Friends, when voices today praise tyrants like Mao Zedong, we must take them at their word. History teaches us a clear lesson: when God is taken out of the equation, basic human rights go out the window. It’s time for my fellow co-believers to speak up.
Catherine Austin Fitts describes the Covid era as a "financial coup"—designed to transfer economic power to large corporations by deliberately bankrupting small businesses while large retailers were allowed to stay open.
"What you do is you shut down the small businesses and small farms, you leave the publicly traded companies open... and then they're in a position to consolidate the market share of the small businesses and buy up assets cheap."
"It's an incredible way to pick up market share because you don't have to buy it or compete for it. You just shut them down."
Sen. Ron Johnson: “Are there any studies on the Amish?”
Dr. Brian Hooker: “The only cases of Autism in the Amish population were among adopted children who had been vaccinated BEFORE joining Amish families. ZERO cases in unvaccinated Amish-born kids.”
This is devastating.
An entire unvaccinated population with ZERO autism in their own children — until vaccines are introduced.
Why isn’t this front-page news? Why has this data been buried?
The Amish are living proof of what happens when you don’t inject infants with 70+ doses of vaccines.
Our kids are being poisoned while they gaslight us and call it “coincidence.”
This isn’t about “better diagnosis.” This is about what we’re injecting into our babies.
Say NO to the shots... for your children & for yourself.
Erin Brockovich on data centers: “You’re pushing people too far at this point. You’re taking their water. Their air is jeopardized. Their land is jeopardized. Their sanctuary is jeopardized. Their wildlife is jeopardized. The trees, the rivers, the creeks, the birds, all of it”
A hiker came around a blind corner on a trail at Brooks Falls in Katmai National Park Alaska and found herself face to face with Bear 909 - one of the most well known Alaskan Coastal Brown Bears in the park - along with her two cubs.
Instead of panicking she stepped off the trail about 12 to 15 feet, stopped when the terrain ran out, stayed calm, used one voice, and let the bears pass.
That is textbook bear encounter protocol and she executed it perfectly under pressure that would have most people completely frozen. The bears at Brooks are habituated to humans and have a high tolerance because of the salmon food source in the area but they are still wild animals that can turn defensive in a split second if they feel threatened. The number one rule - never run.
Running triggers the predatory instinct and at that point the encounter changes completely. Always carry bear spray and know how to use it before you ever set foot in bear country.
Could you remain that calm in that moment?
Every person living in a western nation needs to listen to every word of this
Katherine Berbalsingh went to the University of Oxford and is Headmaster at Michaela Community School in London, UK
She PERFECTLY explains the mass indoctrination into the narrative of oppressor and oppressed, and of hating White People
I will write only some of this out because it’s very important, however you should listen to it so you can hear the passion:
“The culture shift comes from what children learn at school and online. Ask any young person what history they learned at school, and they’ll tell you, Hitler. Ask them what else? Slavery. Ask them what else? American civil rights.
In fact, what little they know of history will be all about Black and brown people fighting for equality against the white man, women fighting men for the vote, gay and trans people fighting for various rights. Our young people have been taught that history is simply one long story about various groups struggling under the oppressive dead white man.
— History is taught through an oppressor lens. The triangular slave trade, white men held the power. What about Britain ending the slave trade? More than a quick mention, if at all? Mm, no.
What of the Arab slave trade that lasted 3 times as long as the triangular slave trade? Mm, no.
Okay, so GCSE history in Britain is often taught as migration through time, so the idea that Britain has always been a land of immigrants is embedded in our children’s heads. Most schools would prefer to concentrate learning about the tiny number of Black people who existed in Tudor England over a thorough analysis of England’s break from Rome.
— Not to mention weeks on King Mansa Musa of Mali because he was a Black Muslim. His bearing on British institutions, laws, and faith is nonexistent. And the fact that he is said to have been the richest man in history, thanks in part to his massive slave-owning society, is a detail somehow that teachers rarely ever teach.
But it isn’t just our schools. It’s our general culture too. Take your kids to a museum or an art gallery in any Western country, and you’ll find the same narrative.
As an example, when learning about aviation in London’s Science Museum and the extraordinary feat that is man making massive machines move in the sky, a write-up on the wall explains that women and Black people were historically barred from aviation schools and the military. Similarly, James Watt, the man who invented the steam engine and is considered the founder of the Industrial Revolution, has a write-up on the wall explaining that his early career involved slave trafficking, with a bonus analysis of the whole of Britain’s complicity in the slave trade.
They flatten the entire human story and all of its complexities into the narrative of oppressor and oppressed, leaving young people unable to see the world in any other terms.”
We have to end the mass indoctrination
Republicans… are you okay with FLOCK cameras tracking every trip to the gun store or shooting range—then flagging you as a potential threat?
What about peacefully protesting outside an abortion clinic and landing on a domestic terror list?
This surveillance state doesn’t care about your party. It’s coming for your 2A and 1A rights. Time to push back.
🚨 Sec. Marco Rubio just NAILED IT:
"One of the criticisms you sometimes hear of communism is that it 'sounds good in theory, but it never works in practice.'"
"That's actually NOT TRUE. Communism does NOT sound good in theory. The world that envisions for all of us is small, flat, gray, leveled of all exception, drained of all that is good and noble in the human soul."
"The world that envisions is a world without courage, a world without creativity, or ambition, a world without heroes, or glory, or great causes to strive towards, without a world without miracles, without men who rise above the rest to do incredible and extraordinary things."
"And the world communism envisions is a world without God."
"For these architects of revolutionary violence, the towering achievement of our civilization, for them, it's an unbearable humiliation, a reminder of what they cannot do and a reminder of what they cannot be. So they choose instead to destroy." 💯
